Roughly 70,000 refugees have resettled in South Sudan’s Yida camp just over the Sudan border, and they may soon be forced to start their lives over once again. They have come to Yida to escape ongoing war since 2011 in the Nuba Mountains, between Sudan’s armed forces and a rebel group. Fighting continues; Nuba Reports documented 2,000 bombs dropped in civilian areas last year alone. Come June next year, the settlement where the Nuba people have started markets, developed farms, built schools and even an airstrip, will be effectively shut and refugees relocated to other camps, says the UN.
